Gas cap removal difficulties

Very hard to turn
Use some grease on the thread / neck where they engage. Clean off any rust or burrs present. You can use a very fine grit wet or dry sandpaper.

You could even try some wet or dry paper with a string for retrieval inserted between contact points and work cap back & forth a little, not a lot though as you want some resistance and you don't want a lot of grit in the fuel. Maybe, pump fuel out afterwards and put fresh clean in or strain it through a paint strainer.
